For those who are unaware of what is MAV, the acronym stands for “Memory Access Violation”. It’s a dialog box that appears when the user tries to, for example, use already freed resource such as an image or sound file, and will terminate the program afterwards. This error is quite common, and CoolBasic community is quite familiar with it – familiar enough to hate it 🙂

I decided to start a new tradition, a comic about CoolBasic, and its community and staff. I intend to keep the publishing pace of the comic relatively slow, but I do have some fun ideas reserved already. I’ll enrich the comic with more characters in future coming strips, but for now let me introduce “The Zero“, who is the Lead Developer of the entire thing, and “The Evil Admin“, a stereotype of someone watching over our forums in a daily basis.
